The more you lock, the more you unlock  
  
 Vicious cycle 🦂

Not too high, just mute all the notifications and only open them when you want and switch off the data when not needed

How many times do you unlock your mobile in a day ?

How many times do you unlock your mobile in a day ?- Grapevine

Overall spending close to 16 hours daily on mobile/laptop/TV

I have been trying to cut back my screen time. 

Thinking of not using phone/laptop for an entire day except for making and receiving calls.

If you also been working towards detoxing yourself digitally, do share what you have been doing and is that working for you? 

Definition of digital detox - A digital detox refers to a period of time when a person refrains from using tech devices such as smartphones, televisions, computers, tablets, and social media sites.

Digital detox : Do you do it? If yes how you do it?

Guys, I want know how you arrange your apps in home screen like social media in one row, entertainment apps in another row etc. Feel free to post your screenshot. 

PS: My aim is to reduce social media usage.

Your Homescreen Layout

It’s clear to me that this isn’t good for me. My interaction with the outside world and being in the present is inversely proportional to how much I use IG/smartphone.

IG is obv the strongest drug, but in general want to be more conscious about what I do on my phone, when Inuse it.

Looking for genuine advice. Please help 🙏🏻

People who reduced IG/Smartphone usage, how did you do it?

Simple Shirley, Uninstall 
  
 If required, login from web only 
  
 I've set timers for 19 apps in my phone by digital wellbeing 🤷 
 It'll help in long run

Why does this app keep asking for a phone number every time I login? Isn't one time OTP verification sufficient? Such a bummer.

OTP verification!! Not again 🤨

Welcome to Gadgets & Apps's Private Community

I feel we are stuck between 4-5 apps daily and not using the phone (the great invention) to it's fullest 
Suggest ideas that I can try

How to maximize phone utilization?

Intern

Thanks to social media, my attention span has new lows. Working remotely is making me inactive and end up spending tooo much time on scrolling. Not able to continuously work for even one hour without checking the phone. Anyone in a similar situation and how are you trying to get better?

How do you motivate yourself

Why everymonth or after some days again asking registration number ?? It might loose interest. many apps don't ask 2nd time once login.

Hey folks, 
As you also may be quite irritated by all the spam calls you receive, what steps have you taken to free yourself from this abuse? 

I have a Pixel phone, it does a good enough job of screening these calls, however at a daily rate I receive 10 spam calls.

Mine: 
1) Instagram (actually sad about this) 
2) WhatsApp (fair enough) 
3) Chrome 

4th interestingly is Swiggy, how tf am I spending so much time there :D

This is worse addiction than smoking, drinking. 

Haven't watched any short/reels for 5 days straight feeling like a void inside. 

But its better, Watching reels/shorts would give a feeling of satisfaction because of the dopamine release.
So seeking other experiences for that dopamine hit. Life is getting better.

Reels, Shorts Addiction

Exactly the reason I deactivated Instagram. It's been a year now. Don't even feel the need to ever go back.
